Unfortunately, on this occasion I have to agree with Steve.

Any 'spin' is being applied by those supplying the figures.
As it stands at present, if a man gets knocked down by a bus, and dies in hospital, he is counted among the next day's Covid statistics if he has had a positive test in the last 28 days.

Any person, or government, basing their actions on the statistics provided needs to have a full and clear knowledge of how the statistics are made up, and any reasons that they may be biased in one direction or another.

Contrary to (some) popular beliefs, the sky is not falling.
